Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

The circuit consists of three NAND gates. The first two gates receive inputs X and Y, producing outputs (XY)'. These identical signals feed into the final NAND gate. The output is ((XY)' · (XY)')', which simplifies to XY via double negation. Thus, the circuit functions as an AND gate.
